Family Law
In terms of family law in Pakistan, We have a list of skilled attorneys that provide assistance to their clients. The legal system is founded on Islamic law and English common law. The former has more power in commercial law, whereas the latter has more significance in personal law.
The rules dealing with Muslim family law created in British India remained to control personal status after India's partition in 1947. A Muslim Commission on Marriage and Family Laws was created in 1955 to review personal status laws for Muslims in India. It recommended many changes in 1956, including treating all triple talaqs as single, reversible repudiations. Many prominent ulama like Maulana Abual Ala Maududi opposed the report's recommendations.
The Muslim Family Laws Ordinance, 1961 adopted some of the provisions of the Marriage and Family Laws Commission's Report. It was intended to reform divorce law and inheritance law relating to orphaned grandchildren, restricting polygamy practice and many more. Many ulama groups viewed this as illegitimate involvement or tampering with the traditional law.
When Pakistan's first constitution was proclaimed in 1956, it featured a provision known as the repugnancy clause. This clause said that no legislation would be adopted that was contrary to Islamic injunctions. In subsequent Constitutions, this repugnation provision has been preserved and reinforced.
The Constitution was again suspended after a military takeover in 1999. During the year 2000, there was more discussion about prospective constitutional changes. We handle a wide range of property matters and all types of Property Claims.
